Expect that some here have more details than this, but.. Hackers at at a competition in Las Vegas were able to successfully breach the software of U.S. voting machines in just 90 minutes on Friday, illuminating glaring security deficiencies in America's election infrastructure. Tech minds at the annual "DEF CON" in Las Vegas were given physical voting machines and remote access, with the instructions of gaining access to the software. Can it BE? that: Many/Most!? of these er, Diebold-clones ARE on some Ex-Pee variant Still? ..and nobody-in-power/"with OVERSIGHT" gives a FUCK??? Carrion we've been part of its Stew.

Don't be so quick to blame XP, either. Who needs OS-level exploits when shitty application software with inappropriate privileges gives you everything you need? Hi, heartbleed! Hayo, shellshock! Wassup, stagefright? How's it hanging, Flash?
